Happy Tuesday! Today was a busy day in first grade. As one student said as we were packing up, I can't believe the day is over; it feels like we just started!
We began our day by going over to church for Adoration. It was the perfect way to begin our day by spending some quiet time talking to Jesus.
In Language Arts today, we learned three new oral vocabulary words. We also practiced the skill of asking and answering questions as we read a story. Next, we reviewed r blends and s blends by using our letter tiles to build words. Then, we learned about possessives. We learned that possessives show ownership; we practiced our new found knowledge by completing a worksheet where we completed the possessive phrase. Next, we reread Move and Grin! and wrote key details from the story. Later in the day, we practiced identifying statements, questions, and exclamations.
We began our Math class today by reviewing our doubles facts. Pretty soon the students will be practicing their facts nightly at home. Then we learned how to identify heavier objects. We used a balance to do this. First we put two things on the balance, and then we watched to see which side went down. The side that went down was the heavier one. The students really enjoyed using a balance.
